Azabu Street View - Google
As upstairsforthinking pointed out, Google’s Street View has hit Japan and now you can navigate around some parts of the Isles of the Rising Sun from the comfort of your own home. It is going to take a lot more work before they cover the whole country, and I imagine if this gets more popular there will be some privacy complaints (privacy law is quite strong in Japan), but this is a very useful tool indeed.
Here is the view of the entrance to our apartment building.
Now, can you find Tokyo Tower from here?
